Great Wall Motor (2333 HK): 1Q24 earnings spike 17.5x on margin recove...
GWM posted upbeat 1Q24 results with revenue and net profit growing 48%/17.5x yoy to Rmb42.86b/Rmb3,228m respectively. These far outpace the 25% sales volume growth, due to ASP hikes and margin improvement from the optimisation of sales mix and export growth. Going forward, we expect margins to fall back to normal levels, based on the weakening sales momentum domestically. Maintain HOLD. Target price: HK$10.50.

Revenue fell 17% yoy and 30% qoq to Rmb9.3b in 1Q24 due to lower lithium-ion battery prices and slowing battery sales growth.

We expect SEA’s adjusted EBITDA to continue showing sequential improvement in its upcoming 1Q24 results despite it being a seasonally weaker quarter. This is due to an improved landscape for e-commerce, as evidenced by the rise in take rates and subsidy cuts by SEA and its key competitor. The gaming segment is also expected to do well from a higher average monthly player count. We raise our target price by 24% to US$78.39 to reflect the better e-commerce industry landscape. Maintain BUY.

Tuopu’s 2023 net profit came in as expected at Rmb2.15b (+26.5% yoy), in line with the preliminary numbers disclosed previously. Looking ahead, we expect Tuopu to further diversify away from Tesla with the launch and ramp-up of new projects with other customers. Having said that, Tesla will still contribute over 40% of Tuopu’s revenue in 2024-26. Given the weaker sales of Tesla, we trim our 2024-25 net profit forecasts by 9%/13% respectively.
